j inzhou city.
liang sheng politely declined the hunter’s invitation to visit his home in the mountain, and went straight back to jinzhou city. although when he returned the city gates were already closed, for him, sneaking into the city was not a problem at all.
it was just that liang sheng’s passions had surged after his breakthrough to half-step innate, but now they had returned to their calmness once again. master xuan kong’s appearance at the jinshan temple had sounded the alarm bell in his heart once more.
a small temple like jinshan could harbor impressive talents, but there were even more powerful figures hidden throughout the world. he must not become arrogant and lose sight of himself.
however, liang sheng would not think less of himself either. it was just that from now on, he would have to be more careful in his actions. afterward, he organized his emotions and went to yichun building.
having broken through the half-step innate today, his lifespan had surged to 800 more years, and that was worth celebrating!
it was that night when he went to yichun building and listened to the boasts of the young men there that he learned that jinshan temple’s crown prince had actually left the capital and arrived in jinzhou city.
only then did liang sheng realize why the security at the city gate of jinzhou city had been so tight. so, that was the reason.
considering the crown prince’s visit to jinzhou city, there must have been some ulterior motives. but what did that have to do with him? only someone with a brain problem would provoke such trouble.
moreover, prince ping’an was named ye, from the same lineage as the dayan imperial family. the waters there might be as deep as the ocean, and getting involved would only bring trouble.
only these young lordlings still wished to climb into the nobility, to become the fish that leapt over the dragon’s gate and fulfill their ambitions. however, they didn’t consider the piles of white bones beneath the gates of the nobility.
nevertheless, the peaceful days did not come as liang sheng had hoped – after all, wherever there were people, there was jianghu. moreover, the sudden arrival of a prince of the royal palace in a small city was bound to have some purpose.
teahouse.
zhang yuntai had become even more steady in demeanor, and the teahouse’s business was booming. liang sheng nodded in admiration at zhang yuntai’s success.
as expected, the zhang family’s wealth and prominence would likely endure for at least three generations. brother rong truly had a good son.
however, the situation in jinzhou city became tense. during this period, there were sporadic arrivals of martial artists from the outside, and their numbers increased.
the inns in the city were almost entirely occupied by these foreign martial artists, and as more and more martial artists entered the city, public order naturally became somewhat unstable.
for a short while, jinzhou city was rather bleak even during the day, not as bustling as it used to be. liang sheng was naturally dissatisfied with this.
and all of this was rooted in prince of ping’an’s mansion’s son, ye an. as time passed, more and more powerful figures entered jinzhou city, and their strength only grew stronger.
originally, jinzhou city was left with a martial arts family, the liang family, which had almost lost its reputation. however, during this period, the younger generation of the liang family had been restrained by their family and were trying their best not to conflict with these foreign martial artists.
but martial artists were inherently competitive, seeking to prove their strength and fierceness. the county jail had already detained no fewer than twenty foreign martial artists, and several had even died.
at this moment, liang sheng was squinting his eyes while pondering in his heart. it seemed that rumors might not be groundless after all. if the rumors were true, he could observe from a distance.
if there was no danger…
thinking of this, liang sheng made up his mind. he would wait and see how the situation unfolded before making a decision!
jinshan temple.
“damn it!”
at this moment, ye an was so angry that he slammed the tea bowl in his hand onto the ground. “who leaked the news? who is spreading rumors in the city?
captain wu, are the dragon suppression guards, as the state’s weapon, really becoming so unreliable? can’t you even keep a lid on things?”
wu gang immediately knelt on one knee, filled with both awe and fear. “your highness, please calm your anger. it’s all due to my inefficiency in handling matters.
